Kaito's video

Could someone who knows Japanese please translate Kaito's video as well as the characters at the top of the page and in the middle of the repository pictures. I know the front page has a 'translation' of the address. Call me cynical, but I'd like outside confirmation. Thanks bunches!! Disney42 09:43, 8 May 2007 (EDT)

• The english version is actually what the opening statement on the homepage is. FlyingMan 17:37, 8 May 2007 (EDT)
  • Thanks bunches!! Just wanted confirmation that there wasn't something hidden in the Japanese version. :) Disney42 20:12, 8 May 2007 (EDT)

Sword Saint

According to TV Guide, yamagatofellowship.org is hosting a fake five-part documentary about Kensei called Sword Saint, narrated by John Rhys-Davies. However, I haven't been able to find it on the website yet. Anybody else have any luck? -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 15:14, 27 August 2007 (EDT)

• Could be something that'll start at the beginning of season two, and that they're simply filming it now. I can't finding anything about it either. --DocM 15:21, 27 August 2007 (EDT)
  • ...only it says in the that it's currently available. Hrmph. I'm hoping that NBC is just slow and not that TV Guide is wrong... but I guess it doesn't matter since I'm getting a pretty big Heroes fix tomorrow with the arrival of a new DVD! *squeal* -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 15:28, 27 August 2007 (EDT)
  • OMG, I totally forgot about it! <slaps head> --Hero!^(talk)_(contribs) 20:49, 27 August 2007 (EDT)
  • Batter Up! I was able to access and watch it just now. Page needs to be updated by someone with more time. Quickie to do list for the 4+ minute video: summary, update Kensei page, new character page on Whitebeard, update locations. SacValleyDweller 01:47, 28 August 2007 (EDT)
    • Yeah, I'm on it. I did a basic summary here. I'm not going to write an article on Whitebeard. (I'm not sure it's needed quite yet, though I'm not opposed to it). By the way, for all who want, here's the link. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 01:51, 28 August 2007 (EDT)
      • Wow, That was fast! IMHO, a Whitebeard page will be necessary later on. SacValleyDweller 02:03, 28 August 2007 (EDT)
        • Right, I'm not opposed to it, I'm just not going to write it. Great video, though, eh? I'm intrigued to see what parts 2-5 bring us. And what's up with that bear? -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 02:05, 28 August 2007 (EDT)
          • Ya good, you and me both.--SacValleyDweller 02:08, 28 August 2007 (EDT)

The titles of the rest of the videos (and their airdates) is up at yamagatofellowship. Looks like fun! -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 23:08, 31 August 2007 (EDT)

• Batter Up for part 2! I was able to access and watch it just now. to do list: summary, update Kensei page, new character page on Whitebeard, update locations. --SacValleyDweller 01:52, 5 September 2007 (EDT)
  • Part 3 now up! :) --Hero!^(talk)_(contribs) 21:19, 11 September 2007 (EDT)
    • Chapter 4, part 1, just put up. --Hero!^(talk)_(contribs) 21:36, 17 September 2007 (EDT)
      • Batter Up CH 4, PT 2 up! --SacValleyDweller 01:39, 20 September 2007 (EDT)
        • Interesting, looks like the next and final part is going to cover the discovery of the remains.--MiamiVolts (talk) 01:55, 20 September 2007 (EDT)
          • Part 5, Batter up!--SacValleyDweller 01:15, 25 September 2007 (EDT)

Maps of Japan

• The Sword Saint video includes several versions of a map of Japan, showing the position of Otsu and Whitebeard's forces. Should we include it here?--MiamiVolts (talk) 22:53, 21 September 2007 (EDT)

On the main page..

There is a video message... but it's in Japanese. Can anyone translate it?--Riddler 04:01, 2 December 2007 (EST)

• The translation is on the same page:

For as long as history has been recorded, it has recorded the story of heroes. Whether it be the myths of those possessing supernatural abilities or the legends of the ordinary finding the extraordinary inside themselves, common strings can be found through all of these tales. The Yamagato Fellowship is dedicated to the study of these heroes - to highlight their courage, their passion and their intellect. By looking into the past, it is our hope that we will all be better equipped to identify and inspire the heroes walking among us today.

-- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 04:13, 2 December 2007 (EST)

• Whoops, didn't realize that was the same message.--Riddler 04:15, 2 December 2007 (EST)
  • Yeah, it took me awhile to realize that too. In the summer, I think I spent time on Babel Fish trying to translate it to no avail. I even sent it to a Japanese-speaking friend...then I saw the note on the front page: "English translation of Yamagato Fellowship announcement"...duh. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 04:18, 2 December 2007 (EST)

Why he is a hero

"WHY HE IS A HERO" was part of the February 12 update, right? Josh 12:58, 15 February 2008 (EST)

• I don't believe they were there before. I update the page. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 15:59, 15 February 2008 (EST)

Repository suggestions

Just sent one in... I wonder if they plan to expand/update it now that Hiro has a blog there...--MiamiVolts (talk) 05:17, 11 February 2010 (EST)

• I hope so. I sent in a bunch last year, but none were used. In fact, none were added after they called for suggestions. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 12:22, 11 February 2010 (EST)
  • What are they? --mc_hammark 12:30, 11 February 2010 (EST)
    • The repository is a collection of heroes' tales, from both history and myth/legend. The articles were viewable by clicking on an image of the hero in the repository, and they provided a summary/biography for each hero.--MiamiVolts (talk) 13:38, 11 February 2010 (EST)
      • See here for the repository, or see here for a summary of the repository. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 15:42, 11 February 2010 (EST)
